Answer

${{\$}} 8500$ per month. $2111$ hits per day

Work Step by Step

Quadratic models have the form: $f(x)=ax^{2}+bx+c$ and their graph is a parabola. The sign of $a$ determines which way the parabola opens. This one opens down ($a\lt 0$). $c$ gives us the y-intercept, $f(0)=c.$ The vertex $(-\displaystyle \frac{b}{2a}, f(-\frac{b}{2a}))$ is a maximum point. So, the maximum volume occurs for $x=-\displaystyle \frac{0.085}{-0.000005}={{\$}} 8500$ per month. Thus, the maximum volume is $h(8500)\approx 2111$ hits per day
